About a year ago I really wanted to try those body wrap things everyone was talking about. After meeting with the lady that sold me one I started learning about It Works! and the products they had to offer. I am quite a skeptic when it comes to a lot of products that claim so many health benefits, but when I heard that this one specific “drink” provides 8 plus servings of fruits and vegetables and helps detoxify, I wanted to try it. Needless to say, our whole family loves It Works! Greens.
The main reason why I wanted to blog about Greens is to share our personal story of going from prescription medication for our daughter to none at all. I know no one likes to talk about constipation, but sadly enough , several years ago our daughter suffered from horrible constipation and she was even sent to see a GI doctor. They prescribed medicine to go to the bathroom and she needed it at least every other day. She was a picky eater (not so much anymore!) and she rarely ate her veggies. So, looking for alternatives I decided to have her try the Greens with some orange juice and she liked it! We noticed how well she was going to the bathroom and stopped the medication. I can say now that she has been medication free for a year! She loves her Greens and even asks for them!
I for one cannot go without my Greens! That is the first thing I drink in the morning. They energize me and I feel great! Our entire little family enjoys Greens very much.
So, this is what Greens are all about!
- Comes in Orange and Berry flavor

And here is a little recipe that works great for whitening teeth!! I know, I’ve had the question before: Greens to whiten? Yes!!!! Adding Greens to your whitening regime makes it quicker and better!
You need:
- 1 tsp Greens
- 1 tsp Baking Soda

Mix all ingredients together (preferably in a container you can seal). Brush teeth as usual with regular toothpaste and then brush teeth with the Greens mixture. You will look funny for a minute or two, but it is worth it!
